Excellence in Imaging Advance Imaging in Claremore offers first-rate MRI services in a compassionate, timely manner. By Sheryl Sowell Advance Imaging, located in the heart of Claremore at 1110 W. Will Rogers Blvd., offers magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a comfortable, patientfocused environment. With the first location in Tulsa, the company opened the Claremore facility in February of this year. “We are able to tailor our services to each individual and offer a personal touch. We focus on quality of care and treat our patients like family,” explains Peggy Trease, business development manager. “If you need to have an MRI, choose us for compassionate care and excellent, timely service.”
While it’s not the most thrilling news that doctor’s orders call for an MRI, it is comforting knowing that you don’t have to travel to Tulsa or anywhere else for top-notch service. Advance Imaging utilizes a 1.5T GE Short Bore. “The image quality of our machine will stand up to anything in the country,” explains Bob Fair, executive director of Advance Imaging. Since the scanner is of the short bore variety, people feel less claustrophobic than they would imagine. If you’ve never had an MRI before, you may be a little afraid or intimidated. The staff at
